WHAT WE'RE BLOGGING ABOUT

 

* In "What to Know About Zika Virus," AJN editor-in-chief Shawn Kennedy gives an overview of what is known about the virus, and addresses concerns surrounding its spread (http://wp.me/prthD-5tV).

 

* "Immersed in a nursing role that I didn't even know existed when I entered the profession, I find there to be a common language-one rooted in science but strongest in humanity and compassion, transcending culture, geography, and words," writes Marcy Phipps in "Rightness: A Flight Nurse Taps Into the Universal Language of Nursing" (http://wp.me/prthD-5uC).

 

* In her post "Nurses and Latent TB Infection," AJN clinical editor Betsy Todd discusses the recent case of a maternity nurse with active tuberculosis-and provides nurses with an epidemiologist's take on why latent tuberculosis matters and how they can properly protect themselves and their patients (http://wp.me/prthD-5sS).
